STA104/MTH135: Probability

Homework #4: Poisson & Hypergeometric

Due: Thursday, Sep 25

Text Problems are from Jim Pitman, Probability (1st edn).

• Exercises
  

  § 2.4:		2	5	9
  § 2.5:		1	3	5	8	13
  § 2.R:		7	20*	33

  * Early printings of the text have a typographical error in Review Exercise 20 b) saying that the probability of correct transmission of a bit is p=0.01; others say (correctly) that q=0.01, and so p=0.99.

Good Luck!
